Twin Buttes Reservoir

We arrived around sunset for a quick night on our road trip heading West. There were some bugs out but nothing crazy. Peaceful sounds of birds and waterfowl. Fell asleep to thunderstorms way off in the distance. We stayed at first spot near the closest pit toilet, was a tad dirty but serviceable. Probably wouldn’t recommend for multiple nights and definitely not a destination type location but worked for us, lucky to have no major winds.

This site was so peaceful and beautiful, especially at sunset and sunrise. The bugs were terrible when we got there around sunset, but in the morning they weren’t swarming. There was lots of space between campers, and lots of places to choose from, all giving the same view. There were a few vault toilets that were pretty clean spread throughout, but a bit of a walk if you aren’t parked next to them. No shade in sight, so prepare to be pretty exposed. Lots of birds to see, and also some pretty cool rocks if you are into that.

Beautiful and easy to get to. Will fit any size rig. Paved the whole way until you get to the reservoir and then it’s a pretty easy dirt/gravel road. Lots of spaces available even on the weekend. Saw two spaces with picnic tables and formal fire pits but you can camp pretty much wherever. Only complaint would be the biting flies.
